The former Spice Girl came clean about some embarrassing wardrobe selections from her past in a new interview.

She may be the head of a fashion empire she’s spent over a decade building up, but Victoria Beckham has revealed that she hasn’t always had such an innate sense of style, opening up about some of her past fashion disasters in a new interview.

The 42 year old former Spice Girl and mother of four spoke to The Edit this week about how she came to start in the fashion industry, and revealed some rather epic fashion fails in the process – including the time she went to Disneyland in Louboutins.

Victoria told 'This Morning' that five year old Harper wears heels "better than most adults".

Viewers of ITV’s ‘This Morning’ were surprised and a bit taken aback by Victoria Beckham’s admission that her young daughter Harper already wears heels, and can do so “better than most adults”.

The 42 year old fashion designer and Spice Girl was talking exclusively about her new ranges at New York Fashion Week and her collaboration with Estee Lauder, but it was the subject of her five year old daughter that caused a commotion on Twitter on Thursday morning (September 15th).

But the Spice Girls and fashion designer doesn't mind at all - "he looks so beautiful!"

At the age of 41 he’s still one of the most desirable men on the planet, and now David Beckham’s wife Victoria has revealed the secret to his looks – he often uses her range of beauty products.

Talking about her new collection of cosmetic products on ‘This Morning’ on Wednesday (September 14th), the former Spice Girl and fashion designer revealed that David regularly uses it to help maintain his own beauty regimen.

“David does steal my beauty products,” she dished to the show’s presenters. “It doesn't annoy me… he looks so beautiful!”

Scary Spice jokingly hit out at Mel C and Victoria Beckham for deciding not to celebrate the Spice Girls 20th anniversary.

Want to know why the Spice Girls reunion will only feature three members? Well Mel B has a pretty straightforward answer for you. Mel will be reuniting with Geri Horner and Emma Bunton soon to celebrate the group’s 20th anniversary, but as for the other two, they're just ‘bitches’ according to Scary Spice.

Mel B has joked that Mel C and Victoria are ‘bitches’ for not doing the Spice Girls reunion

Speaking on 'The Late Late Show', Mel B was asked by host James Corden why the reunion would only feature three Spice Girls. "The other two bitches didn't want to do it," Mel joked, before setting the record straight.

Victoria was a little drunk when she first laid eyes on her future husband, but the spark was all there.

Victoria Beckham has described the first time she met future husband David Beckham saying it was “love at first sight”. The 42-year-old fashion designer penned a letter to her 18-year-old self for British Vogue's October issue, where she talked about her struggles with acne, her weight and her confidence and also described the night she drunkenly met David in the Manchester United players lounge.

"Learn more about football, especially the offside rule," she told her younger self. "And yes, love at first sight does exist. It will happen to you in the Manchester United players' lounge – although you will get a little drunk, so exact details are hazy.

Victoria, 41, wrote the letter as part of her feature interview for Vogue's October edition.

Victoria Beckham has penned a letter to her 18 year old self, giving herself advice for the future and promising herself that her issues with her looks won’t matter with time.

The 41 year old fashion designer and Spice Girl is the cover of Vogue’s October issue for the British edition. Her letter comes after a recent report indicated that a third of young British girls are unhappy with how they look.

The former Sporty Spice is gearing up to release a new solo album as Mel B, Geri and Emma plan to reunite.

Mel C has finally broken her silence on why she won’t be joining her fellow Spice Girls for their 20th anniversary reunion tour. In an essay penned for Love Magazine, the former Sporty Spice opened up about her struggles with the modern concept of ‘celebrity’ and why she’s chosen to say no to the reunion.

The pop star turned radio presenter was interviewed on ‘This Morning’ on Wednesday (August 24th), and said that she recently spoke to the fashion designer at her husband David’s 40th birthday party. Although she has remained insistent that she’s focussing on her new career, Bunton said that Victoria is prone to changing her mind and may even decide to come on board after all.

Emma Bunton said that Victoria Beckham could always change her mind about the Spice Girls reunion

Mel Coloma, who is now married with children and working for the NHS, was a member of the girl group back when they were called Touch.

Mel Coloma, the nearly-Spice Girl who lost her place in the group to Victoria Beckham, has appeared on ‘This Morning’ and revealed she still hasn't given up on fame. Coloma was chosen for the group in 1994 back when they were called Touch, but says she eventually got the axe because her voice was “too strong”.

Victoria Beckham replaced Mel Coloma in the group that would become the Spice Girls

Speaking to hosts Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford, Coloma said: “I'm still hopeful I will make it. I'll always keep singing.” The 41-year-old said she got her place in the group after answering an advert in The Stage.

Reports in The Sun suggest that Sporty Spice is unhappy at the planned Spice Girls / GEM reunion.

As their twentieth anniversary approaches, prospects of a Spice Girls reunion seem to be in turmoil, with new reports suggesting that Mel C is the main obstacle to a comeback.

Real name Melanie Chisholm, the Liverpool-born singer is said to be unhappy at her bandmates Geri Horner, Emma Bunton and Melanie Brown’s attempts to reform the Spice Girls as a trio – with Victoria Beckham already turning the down the offer to participate – and is consulting lawyers in a bid to block their efforts.

Victoria's Instagram followers criticised her after she posted the pic on Sunday, her daughter's 5th birthday.

Victoria Beckham has received backlash on social media after posting a sweet picture of herself kissing her daughter Harper, wishing her a happy fifth birthday.

A number of Posh’s Instagram followers objected to the sight of a mother her kissing her child on the lips – despite it being quite a common thing, really.

The picture was posted on Sunday (July 10th), on the fifth birthday of Victoria and David Beckham’s youngest. “Happy Birthday baby girl," wrote the 42 year old fashion designer and former Spice Girl in the caption. “We all love you so much X @davidbeckham @brooklynbeckham kisses from mummy X.”

David Beckham has taken to Instagram to post a super sweet birthday message for his daughter Harper who turns five today. Posting a cute picture of Harper giving her dad a kiss on the cheek, the former football star wrote: “Happy birthday to my Pretty Lady.”

Ayda Field has hinted about husband Robbie Williams’ past with the Spice Girls.

On Friday’s show the panel dressed as the Spice Girls to celebrate 20 years since the release of ‘Wannabe’. Ayda was dressed as Victoria Beckham when fellow panelist Kaye Adams asked her: “Ayda, did Robbie ‘know’ the Spice Girls?”

A report in The Sun suggests that a huge central London gig is in the pipeline for July 2017, to mark the 21st anniversary of the Spice Girls' first single 'Wannabe'.

Despite a number of setbacks and the fact that only three of their five members are taking part, the Spice Girls are reportedly planning a massive reunion in gig in London’s Hyde Park for July 2017.

The Sun reported on Wednesday evening (July 6th) that Melanie Brown, Geri Horner and Emma Bunton are all on board with the idea to celebrate the 21st anniversary of their 1996 debut single ‘Wannabe’. The three apparently met at Horner’s home last week to discuss the idea

Victoria Beckham and Melanie Chisholm are not said to be involved with the plans – however, they might now reconsider. Both have been reluctant to put their names to a prospective 20th anniversary reunion for the last year or so, and with plans receiving a number of setbacks recently, it looks as if any idea that now comes to fruition will have to be in order to celebrate a 21st anniversary instead.

The #WhatIReallyReallyWant campaign highlights the issues still faced by women around the world today.

This week marks exactly 20 years since the Spice Girls burst on to the UK music scene with ‘Wannabe’. It’s hard to believe that its been so long since we first saw Mel B, Geri, Mel C, Emma and Victoria and heard the term ‘Girl Power’, but what’s harder to stomach is that two decades later women are still fighting for equality around the world.

To mark the 20th anniversary of the birth of ‘Girl Power’, the video for ‘Wannabe’ has been remade to highlight gender inequality issues faced by women across the globe. Launched by Project Everyone, the #WhatIReallyReallyWant campaign addresses the issues still faced by women today, including education, child marriage, pay inequality and violence.

The footballer and his WAG have been a couple for just shy of two decades

The original King and Queen of the tabloids, David and Victoria Beckham, have celebrated their 17th wedding anniversary with a collection of adorable flashback photos. Posting images of their wedding day over a decade and a half ago, the pair have been together for an impressive 19 years in total.

The fashion conscious pair have been wowing red carpets for nearly 20 years

Writing on their respective Instagram accounts, the former footballer and his fashion designer wife gushed about their successful marriage.

Talks are said to have broken down again and now the much anticipated reunion is not happening.

The Spice Girls reunion is said to be off again, after final talks to get Mel C on board broke down this week. According to The Mirror, those already on board, Mel B, Geri Horner and Emma Bunton had even offered to wait a year for Mel C, but the former Sporty Spice is just not interested.

The Spice Girls reunion now looks unlikely.

A source told the newspaper: “Mel C has been telling friends it’s not happening – not for the anniversary and not next year. She’s not interested in revisiting the band, and neither is Victoria. Their decision has made it impossible for the other three to go ahead with plans to tour again.”

The series will follow Geri Horner, Mel B and Emma Bunton as they reunite for their 20th anniversary.

The Spice Girls will reportedly be starring in a TV documentary as they reunite for their 20th anniversary. But sadly not all five original members of the girlband will feature, as Victoria Beckham and Mel C have declined to reunite with their former bandmates.

The Spice Girls are reportedly taking part in a TV documentary.

The Sun reports that the three reuniting members, Geri Horner, Mel B and Emma Bunton are in talks to document their comeback in a three-part TV series. There’s said to be huge interest in the project, from both fans and TV bosses.

Posh slammed suggestions she's a Brexit supporter, pointing out that the quotation obtained by the Leave campaign was 20 years old, and declared her support for Remain.

Victoria Beckham has stamped out claims that she’s a supporter of the campaign for Britain to leave the E.U. ahead of this week’s referendum, coming out as a Remain voter and slamming the idea that she had lent her support for Brexit.

Two months ago, the Leave campaign shared a quote from the former Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer, suggesting that she was a supporter of their movement to make Britain independent from the European Union.

The rumoured Spice Girls reunion could be getting some big help from Simon Cowell.

Back in the mid-nineties pop mogul Simon Cowell made what he once called the ‘biggest mistake’ of his career, he didn't sign the Spice Girls. But according to reports, Cowell is now attempting to right the old wrong, by trying to sign the girls for their rumoured reunion tour.

Is Simon Cowell trying to sign a Spice Girls reunion?

The Sun reports that Cowell made an offer to Mel B last week, when he invited her to be a guest judge on the ‘X Factor’. Mel B has always been vocal about wanting to commemorate the band’s 20th anniversary and is said to be one of the three who has said yes to a tour, along with Emma Bunton and Geri Horner.

The ex-footballer has backed Britain remaining in the EU, despite wife Victoria’s comments from 1996 being used by a Brexit campaign.

David Beckham has said he will be voting for Britain to remain in the EU on Thursday, giving his official backing to the Britain Stronger in Europe campaign. In a Facebook post outlining his stance, Beckham reflected on his football career as proof that Britain is stronger as part of the European Union.

On the official Britain Stronger in Europe Facebook page, Beckham wrote: "I'm passionate about my country and whatever the result of Thursday's referendum, we will always be Great. Each side has the right to their opinion and that should always be respected whatever the outcome of the European Referendum.”

Victoria and Mel C are said to have declined the chance to reunite with their former bandmates, but the other three are keen to go ahead with their 20th anniversary plans. An unnamed source told Life & Style Magazine: “The girls are going to be making a formal announcement about tryouts for their spots in the next few weeks.”

Adele treated fans to an impromptu snippet of ‘Spice Up Your Life’ during a recent concert.

Adele has never made a secret of her love for the the Spice Girls and at a recent concert in Amsterdam the singer showed her admiration by free-styling part of the group’s 1997 hit ‘Spice Up Your Life’. Adele’s homage to the band even caught the attention of the girls themselves and left Scary Spice Mel B uncharacteristically speechless.

Mel B was left speechless by Adele’s homage to the Spice Girls.

Speaking on Monday (June 6), during a a conference call promoting ‘America's Got Talent’ Mel B said: "I'm very kind of flattered. I think all of us are. It's great. It leaves me speechless a little bit. I love Adele."

Beckham had said her microphone was turned off during her days in the girl group.

Mel B has denied former bandmate Victoria Beckham’s recent claim that her microphone was switched off during Spice Girls concerts. Beckham, who wasn't known for her vocal skills, had previously said that her mic used to be muted during live performances, but Mel B has said that’s simply not true.

Mel B has denied that Victoria Beckham’s microphone used to be muted.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Mel B said: “"She wishes it was turned off! We sung live, and we wrote and recorded all our music together live and we performed it live. It wasn't turned down. Not that I know of. Maybe she secretly asked for that -- I don't know about that.”

Longoria married Mexican businessman Jose Antonio Baston on May 21st, with her BFF Victoria in attendance.

Eva Longoria has spoken about her wedding day earlier this month, revealing that her close friend Victoria Beckham designed her dress “with love”.

The 41 year old ‘Desperate Housewives’ star married her third husband, businessman Jose Antonio Baston, in a ceremony in Mexico on May 21st. Former Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer Beckham also attended the wedding, and played a big part in the day.

Longoria revealed that Beckham had designed her silk crepe gown for the ceremony, as well as a separate dress for the post-dinner celebrations and another for a civil ceremony which took place the day before – to which Victoria was a witness.

Earlier this week Victoria Beckham suffered the embarrassment of having her unreleased hip hop album leaked online. Recorded in 2003 with Damon Dash, Come Together was probably best left undiscovered and even Boyzone’s Ronan Keating thinks it's proof that Victoria should stick to fashion.

Ronan Keating has given his verdict on Victoria Beckham's Come Together.

Speaking on 'The Kyle and Jackie O Show' Ronan said: “I think Victoria will tell you herself that she wasn't cut out for the music industry.” The Boyzone star did go on to add that Victoria has found her true calling in the fashion world.

17 demos dating from sessions in 2003 for a scrapped 'hip hop album' with Damon Dash, called 'Come Together', surfaced online this week.

We’ve just checked, and no, it isn’t April 1st. Apparently, once upon a time and not in a galaxy far, far away, there was such a thing as a Victoria Beckham hip-hop album.

Just as it sounds on the face of it, the project is not something that anybody involved with it is particularly pleased to remember, but now fans can get the hear what became of the sessions when 17 unreleased demo tracks were leaked online earlier this week, which can now be found on YouTube and SoundCloud, according to Digital Spy.

The ‘Desperate Housewives’ actress and her fiancé married on Saturday in a star-studded Mexican ceremony

Eva Longoria married her fiancé Jose Antonio Baston (nicknamed Pepe) in a sunset ceremony in lakeside town Valle de Bravo in Mexico yesterday (May 21st), People magazine has confirmed. The couple, who have been engaged since December, exchanged vows in front of celebrity friends including Ricky Martin, Mario Lopez, and Victoria and David Beckham.

Geri, Mel B and Emma have been back in the studio for the first time in years.

It’s been nearly 16 years since the Spice Girls released their last album, Forever, but now as the girl group’s 20th anniversary looms, it seems some new material might be coming our way. According to The Mirror, Geri Horner, Mel B and Emma Bunton spent 48 hours in a London studio this week, recording their first new material in years.

According to a report in The Sun, the pop star-turned-fashion designer used to mime along to the group’s hit songs on stage while Emma Bunton, Mel C, Mel B and Geri Halliwell actually sang.

Speaking at the National Portrait Gallery on Thursday night (May 5th) for the Vogue 100 exhibition, Victoria told the evening’s host Claudia Winkleman: “They used to turn it off and just let the others sing. I got the last laugh - and now my mic is well and truly on, finally.”

Plans for the girl group to reunite for their 20th anniversary are said to now be hanging by a thread.

Mel C has reportedly pulled out of plans for a Spice Girls reunion, which would celebrate 20 years since the release of their first single ‘Wannabe’. Victoria Beckham was previously reported to have declined the reunion and now remaining members Mel B, Emma Bunton and Geri Horner, may be forced to perform as a trio.

Mel C has reportedly pull out of the Spice Girls’ reunion plans.

According to The Sun, Mel B, Emma and Geri will now start fresh discussions about the possibility of still doing something, with options including live performances and maybe even recruiting two new members through a TV show.

It's doubtful that we'll get to see Posh Spice in the Spice Girls again.

It's looking less and less likely that Victoria Beckham is going to change her mind about this Spice Girls 20th anniversary reunion thing, and now it's just come out that the band was never where she felt at home anyway. It makes sense, given how she became such a success in the fashion industry instead.

Victoria Beckham wasn't comfortable in the Spice Girls

The former manager for the Spice Girls, Simon Fuller, who signed the band in 1995, revealed at the Business Innovation Awards in Los Angeles recently that the popstar turned fashion icon was never passionate about music, and even confessed that he was the one who encouraged her to embark on a career as a designer.

The fashion designer is moving into the world of beauty with the limited edition collection.

Victoria Beckham has announced she's partnering with cosmetics giant Estée Lauder to launch a limited edition make-up collection, due to hit shelves later this year. It will be the first time the former Spice Girl turned fashion designer has lent her name to a full make-up line, having previously launched two nail polishes with Nails Inc. in 2014.

The former Spice Girl uploaded a video of her 11 year old singing Twista and Faith Evans' 'Hope' - and was soon flooded with compliments.

With three sons and one daughter apparently more interested in football than fashion, David Beckham has recently wondered publically whether any of his children would share any of his wife Victoria’s interests in performing.

However, it seems that one of their children may well show an unexpected passion for singing – 11 year old Cruz! The former Spice Girl posted an amazing video on her Instagram page on Wednesday (April 13th) of her third child singing an impromptu version of Twista and Faith Evans’ song ‘Hope’ – and it was pretty damn good!

The former Spice Girls posted a quite jaw-dropping pic from behind the scenes at a Vogue fashion shoot on Thursday.

Victoria Beckham took to social media to show off her less serious side, and the impressive results of her ballet regime as she displayed her physical flexibility in an unbelievable Instagram post.

With her legs opened further than a 90 degree angle as she reclined casually on a luxurious sofa in a hotel room, she took the photo behind the scenes at her new fashion shoot for Vogue on Thursday (March 31st).

The 41 year old mother of four wrote to her 9.7 million followers: “It's amazing what you can do in culottes… those ballet classes are paying off! Thank u @edwardbarsamianand @voguemagazine! Kisses from LA x vb.”

Wife Victoria snapped the former England captain spending quality time with their daughter Harper on Friday evening.

David Beckham displayed his devotion to his daughter Harper by spending Good Friday helping her to make dresses and accessories for her dolls.

The retired former Manchester United, Real Madrid and L.A. Galaxy player, 40, was snapped by wife Victoria as he sat on the floor stitching clothes for Harper’s toys. The picture shows Beckham with a look of serious concentration on his face as he follows the instructions, with a pink piece of material and needle and thread in hand.

The ex-Spice Girl and fashion entrepreneur shared the candid photo with her 9 million followers on Instagram, captioning it: “Harper has daddy stitching her dollies dresses!!! We love you @davidbeckham #lovingdaddy #proudmummy #familyfun x vb (sic)”.

Posh Spice apparently only ever orders a plate of spinach or other steamed vegetables, whereas husband David is a "straight eater".

World-famous celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck has described Victoria Beckham has “uptight”, and revealed that she only ever orders spinach or steamed vegetables when she visits his exclusive restaurant in Los Angeles.

The 66 year old Austrian-born Puck, who is known for catering to Hollywood’s crème-de-la-crème every year when he caters at the Oscars ceremony, says that the Beckham family are regular customers at his Cut eatery. However, he revealed in an interview with Heat magazine about her particular attitude towards food.

Is this Spice Girls 20th anniversary reunion happening or not? That's what fans want to know as the summer quickly approaches. And it seems while Emma Bunton is thrilled at the idea, it's still up in the air whether they'll be able to bring Victoria Beckham on board.

Will the Spice Girls get together again?

No doubt about it, the Spice Girls marked a milestone in British pop as the first modern girlband and a paragon of feminism, individuality and patriotism. And so in a world where we struggle to let go of the past, the idea of missing out on a 20th anniversary reunion for such an important group is a crushing disappointment for a lot of people.

Mel B has said her former Spice Girls bandmate Victoria Beckham can be ‘a little bit of a bitch to people’. Mel’s comments come as rumours of a Spice Girls 20th anniversary reunion tour continue and while nothing’s official yet, the 40-year-old did say she feels it’s getting ‘closer and closer’.

Mel B has said that Victoria can be ‘a little bit of a bitch’.

Speaking about Victoria on the Allegedly podcast, Mel said: "She's very down to earth. She's just a little bit of a bitch to people. But she has a great sense of humour. I think between the five of us, we’re all bitches.”

David Beckham has wished his eldest son Brooklyn a very happy birthday, sharing a sweet black and white snap of the pair along with a touching message on Instagram. It’s hard to believe that Brooklyn is now 17, but the teenager is now already an in-demand model and forging a career as a photographer.

Brooklyn Beckham, the 16-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham, has landed a job as a photographer for fashion house Burberry. Brooklyn has previously modelled for the brand and is said to be a keen photographer.

Brooklyn Beckham is now a Burberry photographer.

On Saturday the 16-year-old was out on the streets of London shooting for the brand’s new This Is Brit fragrance campaign. Brooklyn revealed his new gig earlier this week on Instagram, writing: ‘Excited to photograph the @Burberry campaign tomorrow. Watch it live on their Instagram & Snapchat.’

Price was speaking on ITV panel show ‘Loose Women’ as part of a discussion on how to make your ex jealous.

Former glamour model Katie Price has opened up about the time she attempted an overdose to win back ex-boyfriend Dane Bowers. The 37-year-old also revealed that she had been paranoid during her relationship with Bowers, feeling that her then boyfriend was obsessed with Victoria Beckham.

Katie Price has said she attempted an overdose to win back ex Dane Bowers.

"Even when I was younger, stupidly enough, I wanted my ex Dane Bowers back and I did an overdose,” Price told the ‘Loose Women’ panel. ”It's so stupid, it didn’t get him back. You know you do these things for attention.”

During her ride along with James Corden, Adele belted out the Spice Girls and gave a word perfect rendition of Nicki Minaj’s ‘Monster’ rap.

James Corden’s ‘Carpool Karaoke’ segment from the ‘Late Late Show’ never fails to disappoint, but this week he truly brought out the big guns when he was joined by Adele for an in-car sing-a-long. While Adele belted out some of her own classic hits, what was even more impressive was how good she proved to be at rapping and showing her girl power.

During the journey Adele spoke about being a huge Spice Girls fan back in the day (weren’t we all), adding, ‘It was a huge moment in my life when they came out. It was girl power, and it was these five ordinary girls who did so well and got out.”

Geri Horner said that "it'll just be the four of us", with Beckham opting to concentrate on her fashion career.

After a great deal of speculation about a potential Spice Girls reunion, the group has mixed news – it’s going to happen, but without Victoria Beckham.

Speaking on Chris Evans’ BBC Radio 2 breakfast show on Thursday (January 14th), Geri Horner (aka Ginger Spice) said that while there wasn’t anything “definite or concrete”, confirmed that “it’ll just be the four us” and “when it’s definite we’ll announce it together”.

The girls were set to reunite as a foursome, but Beckham could be ready to make it five for some of the rumoured anniversary shows.

Victoria Beckham could be about to join her fellow Spice Girls for some of their rumoured reunion dates later this year. Posh, who had been thought to be missing out on the reunion shows, is reported to be willing to join the rest of the band, as long as it doesn't negatively impact on her family.

Is Victoria Beckham ready to rejoin the Spice Girls?

A source close to the fashion designer told Closer magazine: “There are still lots of details to sort out, but Victoria’s said she’ll perform with the girls. However she stressed she needed to focus on David and the kids this year after a stressful 2015 of trying to juggle work and family life, so committing to all the dates would be too much."

The 90's girl group were set to reunite in 2016 for a 20th anniversary tour.

After reuniting in 2012 for London’s Olympic Games, the Spice Girls were set to come together again in 2016 for a tour to mark their 20th anniversary. But while Victoria Beckham was always going to sit the tour out, talks are now said to be in ‘crisis’, with Mel C refusing to perform as a foursome.

According to The Sun newspaper, Mel C, aka Sporty Spice, will only sign on the dotted line "if all the cogs are in place"."This means good management, good tour promoters and good sponsorship to maximise revenue,” a source said.

Beckham has said wife Victoria would prefer if Harper took up ballet or tap instead.

Victoria Beckham has previously described daughter Harper’s love of football as like a ‘dagger through the heart’ and it appears she hasn't changed her mind. During an upcoming documentary chronicling his travels as a UNICEF ambassador, Victoria's husband David Beckham has said his wife would still prefer Harper to take up ballet or tap, rather than the beautiful game.

David Beckham has said wife Victoria would prefer if Harper didn’t play football.

Speaking in BBC documentary ‘David Beckham: For the Love of the Game’, David told female players in Miami that the “challenge” he faces is from his wife Victoria, “so that is a pretty big one”.

Beckham shed tears at Piper’s acceptance speech as she was awarded the Global Gift Humanitarian Award at the Four Seasons Hotel in the English capital on Monday night (November 30th). She was thanked by Piper for helping her recover from her hospital stay many years ago. "I won a bravery award and Victoria gave me a dress," she said. "I went from an NHS gown to one of Victoria's gowns."

The former footballer admitted that he never feels like “an attractive, sexy person," to the magazine.

David Beckham has been crowned People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2015, beating actors, musicians, models and fellow athletes. The 40-year-old dad of four was revealed as taking this year’s title during Tuesday’s edition of ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’, during which he showed off his trophy.

Three members of the famous girl group had a very belated reunion on Thursday.

Mel B, Geri Halliwell and Emma Bunton, three former members of the Spice Girls, sent tongues wagging on Thursday when they held a belated reunion. In a pic posted on Mel B’s Instagram account, the three girls were pictured together in one happy, long-awaited selfie, proving that friendship really does never end.

Geri Halliwell recently tied the knot with Christian Horner.

The pic, which has so far garnered over 14,000 likes was captioned, "Love my girls!!! Friendship never ends it just gets stronger,” by Mel B. The image comes just one month after Mel B was unable to attend Geri’s wedding to Formula 1 boss Christian Horner in Woburn, Bedfordshire. Mel C and Victoria Beckham were also unable to attend the nuptials, leaving Emma Bunton as the only former Spice Girl present.

The Spice Girls are back together! Ok, that was misleading. By “are” I mean “were” and by “together” I mean “in the same room, taking pictures for a couple of hours”. Also, there were only four of them. But other than that...

The oldest of the Beckham offspring is getting major praise for his parents' decision

Brooklyn Beckham has started work as a barista in London to learn the value of money, something his parents have running through the taps into big money hot tubs in their various mansions across the globe*.

'12 Years A Slave' star Chiwetel Ejiofor with his model girlfriend Sari Mercer were among the stunningly dressed celebrities snapped leaving their New York hotel to attend the 2014 Costume Institute Gala where this year's theme was 'Charles James: Beyond Fashion'.

Some celebrity offspring also have pretty impressive godparents as well

For most of us being asked to be godparent to a friend’s newborn is one of the greatest honours you can be given and it seems celebrities feel the same. We all know the rich and famous like to stick together and it seems when choosing godparents for their children many like to keep it A-list. Here’s 10 famous godparents and their godchildren, some of which are a lot more unexpected than others.

When director Steven Spielberg cast a 7 year old Drew Barrymore in E.T., she wasn't just any aspiring child actress, she was his goddaughter. Once Drew hit her rebellious teen phase she gave her famous godfather plenty of reasons to be worried, Spielberg wasn’t particularly pleased when the then 19 year old posed for Playboy magazine. To show his objection he allegedly sent her the gift of a blanket with a note reading ‘‘cover up’’, also enclosed were Drew’s Playboy pics which had been digitally altered so she now appeared fully clothed.

Given David Beckham’s twin statures as one of the finest football players of his generation and global fashion icon, it’s no surprise that an alcohol awareness charity are condemning him for playing a “fundamental” role in developing Haig Club Single Grain Scotch Whisky alongside Diageo.

David Beckham is going into the whiskey business

Diageo, the British-based drinks company behind Smirnoff, Johnny Walker and Baileys brands announced yesterday that they were partnering up with Beckham, the ex Paris St Germain, Real Madrid and Manchester United player, to launch a Scotch that "showcases butterscotch and toffee."

Brooklyn Beckham has made his modeling debut. With such famous parents was he always destined for a life behind the cameras?

It’s been no secret (or surprise) that 15 year old Brooklyn Beckham, the eldest of the Beckham children, has made his modeling debut. Appearing on the cover of Man About Town Magazine, in one shot the teenager rests his head on hands raised behind his head, in the foreground of Star Wars and Eminem posters. With hair styled similarly to his footballer and model father, David Beckham’s, Brooklyn is clearly the product of his famous parents.

In one image, which sees Brooklyn wearing a yellow and black striped tank top, he frowns at the camera, his mouth positioned into a pout worthy of his fashion designer mother. Shot by Alisdair McLellan, Brooklyn’s debut has been a huge success with fans of the Beckham clan who look forward to the teenager pursuing a long career in modeling.

Stefano Gabbana of Dolce & Gabbana isn't convinced that Victoria Beckham is a true fashion designer. We think that she is, here's why.

Poor Victoria Beckham! The ex-Spice Girl once admitted that she’d “always dreamed of designing a [fashion] collection”, but now that she’s finally been recognised as a credible designer by most of the fashion world, Dolce and Gabbana have come along to burst her bubble. Domenico Dolce, partner of Stefano Gabbana, the Italian designers behind fashion power house D&G, recently attended the Glamour of Italian Fashion 1945-2014 event where he told reporters, “[Victoria] She make a good job, but...for us, she don’t make the same way like a fashion designer...She’s a fashion designer, but it’s another...it’s different. John Galliano is a designer...Alexander McQueen”. He added that “Victoria Beckham, Zara, H&M” were “professional” designers, which are apparently “completely different” to Italian designers, who are “more cool, more trendy”. Ouch.

Victoria Beckham has worked exceptionally hard to establish herself as a fashion designer

Since designing her debut fashion line for label Rock & Republic in 2004, Victoria has worked tirelessly to transform herself from a celebrity dabbling in clothes design to a bonafide high fashion designer. Her runway shows have become one of the highlights of international fashion weeks, while her collections have evolved each season and received rave reviews from critics.

Brooklyn Beckham, the 15-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham, has made his modelling debut in high-end magazine Man About Town - a glossy biannual publication "targeted at high-end business-engaged and culturally-orientated male urbanities."

Lauren Silverman looks fabulous just days after giving birth, how did other celebrity mums fare in comparison?

Just three days ago, Simon Cowell’s girlfriend, Lauren Silverman gave birth to their son, Eric. You’d think that the 36 year old new mum would have been bed bound for a few days to recover from the birth, but Lauren was out and about in New York yesterday and you wouldn’t even be able to tell that she’d just had a baby. Sporting a pair of slim leg leather trousers, Lauren looked in fabulous shape and even better spirits as she shopped for baby clothes.

Celebrity mums seem almost super human in their ability to bounce back into shape immediately after giving birth. While us laypeople struggle to lose the pregnancy pounds, the celebs are back in phenomenal shape within just a few weeks of popping out their little ones.

Fashion Week is in full swing, so as per tradition, everyone is looking to the front row at fashion shows as much as the runway. For a while now, the front row has been the place to be seen, not just to see next season’s looks. So it’s about time for a round-up of this year’s most fashion-conscious celebrities.

Robb might play an 80s suburban teen on television, but her style definitely wasn't left behind.

The Rebecca Minkoff show on Friday attracted a whole host of Millenial Hollywood starlets. Anna Kendrick sat next to Carrie Underwood, who sat next to The Carrie Diaries star AnaSophia Robb, who sat next to Girls star Zosia Mamet. In short, it was like a nominees list for a Teen Choice award. Apparently, after taking fashion blogs by storm, Rebecca Minkoff is now steadily conquering young Hollywood as well. And with a collection dominated by short skirts, school girl inspired uniform dresses and uber-trendy dark makeup looks, it’s no surprise that the show appears to the younger crowd.

Singer Miley Cyrus appears to have misplaced her clothes on the front of Marc Jacobs' latest charity T -shirt.

"Hi, yeah it's Miley...Look could you bring me some clothes - I seem to have accidentally inhaled mine and there's this creepy dude standing around with a camera." Well maybe Miley Cyrus didn't actually say this but it's pretty much what the 20 year-old former Hannah Montana's facial expression is implying on the front of designer Marc Jacobs T-shirt emblazoned with the slogan "Protect The Skin You're In" which is positioned strategically over a starkers Cyrus.

Cyrus: Raising Bare Monies.

It's not a massive cloth-shed for the usually scantily clad performer but there's a special cause at the heart of the shirt campaign. One of the striking black and white T-shirts will cost you $35 but proceeds will go to support the NYU Cancer Institute and NYU Langone Medical Center: centres for medical education in New York, as reported by The Daily Mail. The shirts were launched across nine Marc Jacobs boutiques in America on Friday (26th July) morning, with a planned expansion to Europe next month.

It was an idyllic family night out as the Beckhams joined the Cruise clan at an L.A. Kings game last night. Tom Cruise was joined by his son Connor, while the Beckhams were out in full force – David, alongside Victoria and their brood - Romeo, Cruz, Brooklyn and even adorable little Harper Beckham, clearly enjoying the game from her father’s lap. The Beckhams and the Cruises – two of the most talked about families in the business, have been palling around ever since Victoria and David’s hyped up relocation to the US of A a few years back. Unfortunately, even after all of David’s hard work, football or, as those silly Yanks insist on calling it, soccer, never quite managed to catch on in the States, but hey, at least the family is managing alright in their social life.

Before the night ended, David even got caught on Kiss Cam and gave the ever excitable Harper a peck on the cheek, while she stared at the Jumbo screen in fascination. Yes, it was probably the most endearing moment the Beckhams have had in public. And, now that we know the Beckhams are Kings supporters, you can keep an eye out for the clan in Kiss Cams throughout the season. It was definitely an “aww” worthy moment.

Victoria Beckham suggests fans get the wrong impression of her from paparazzi photographs.

Victoria Beckham has admitted that fans presume she will be "a cow" after seeing photographs of her in the press. The fashion designer is rarely seen beaming with delight in paparazzi snaps, though speaking at the Vogue Festival in central London, the wife of David Beckham joked, "Everyone thinks I'm going to be such a cow - I get it because I think the same when I see the pictures."

The 39-year-old, who is recognized as one of the biggest designers in the world, also discussed the challenges of juggling her expanding brood with her booming business. "I'm a perfectionist, I like everything to be right. I'm probably a complete pain in the neck to work with because it is really important to me because I've grown this brand from nothing to where it is now," she said. Beckham noted that she constantly feels guilty being a working mother, "I think you feel so torn, don't you?" she said, adding, "But I've got great people who handle my schedule and everything does revolve around the children."

After spending several years in Los Angeles, Victoria and David are back in London, though he is currently playing in France for Paris-St Germain. "Living in London is very, very different from Los Angeles, but it's great, it's inspiring. London is such an inspiring place to live, so multicultural, it's interesting, I'm happy," Victoria added.

Victoria Beckham and husband David are said to have become "posher" since their move to Los Angeles.

A study by students at the University of Manchester has found that David and Victoria Beckham and changed the way they speak to sound less working class. Using YouTube clips from before and after the couple's move to America in 2007, one team of students found that David in particular was less likely to drop his 'H's' and use cockney sounding vowels. Another team discovered that Posh was more likely to pronounce the 'L' at the end of words such as 'all.'

According to the students, Victoria would have made 'all' sound like 'aw' in her Spice Girls days. Linguistics lecturer Dr Laurel MacKenzie supervised the study, "Linguists have determined that when languages change, it is primarily children and teenagers who drive those changes. Pronunciation isn't static, but changes gradually over hundreds of years. This is why Chaucer sounded so different 600 years ago - and it's children who facilitate this process," he said.

Never one to mince his words, Morrissey has taken aim at the Beckhams in his latest rant, labelling David and Victoria "insufferable" and suggesting he'd have them "dragged to the edge of the village and flogged." The former Smiths man has taken aim at Sir Paul McCartney, the London Olympics and the Royal Family in recent months, though the former Manchester United star and his fashion designer wife have come in for particular scorn.

Speaking to Loaded magazine, the 53-year-old mused, "I'd... have the Peckhams dragged to the edge of the village and flogged because they are insufferable to anyone of intelligence, and they actively chase the paparazzi." Following the end of his contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy, it is rumoured that Beckham will search for new employment in London. He and Victoria are reportedly renting a home in Kensington, West London, in time for the new school term, though Morrissey thinks it's bad news for everyone involved. "We don't seem to realise that David and Victoria Peckham will soon be back and god forbid they will be bestowed with titles Sir and Lady Peckham, this is what's wrong with this country, we don't seem to care," he said, adding, "Football often seems to me to have no meaning whatsoever other than just to be there. It can't be elevated any higher because so many footballers are paid £200,000 a week, yet couldn't identify a harp."

If we were to judge the British educative system of state schools by the standards of the tabloids that line the shelves of the nation's newsagents, then the majority of our children would barely be able to write their own name before the age of 16.

Of course, in fact, the country offers one of the best educations to be found world wide but if you can pay for the best, then why not? That's precisely what the Beckhams have opted for a £15,000 p/a school for their three boys, to coincide with their return to living in the UK.

As the Mirror reports, "both David and Victoria's families are all delighted too as a return to London means they will see so much more of the children,' a source said. "'For David and Victoria, the children come first. They have spent months researching schools and after visiting a few earlier this month, have found one they agree on. It's an independent school and will not be fazed by having celebrity children on its books."

Some people just never change, and Victoria Beckham is one of them. At least thats what she claims, as she believes that she will always be 'Posh Spice.'

Despite the ongoing rumours circulating that say that Mrs David Beckham is doing her best to keep her distance from the girls - Mel C, Geri Halliwell, Mel B and Emma Bunton - according to a newly released snippet from an upcoming documentary about the girls, she is doing quite the opposite.

In the forthcoming documentary, Victoria reveals: "I was called Posh because I liked the nice restaurants, and the nice clothes, and that was my character. I didn't smile, even in those days. There was this very strong image. And I am very much that person, even now. I get ready to go out sometimes and I catch myself in the mirror and I'm like, 'Oh my God, I've turned into that person'."
